Question:
Roadmaster tow dolly electric brakes, are they self adjusting? What kind of spoon do you need to adjust them if they are not?
asked by: Bill
Helpful Expert Reply:
The Roadmaster Tow Dolly electric brakes, like those on the Tow Dolly # RM-2050-1, are standard manual adjust electric drum brakes. You can use a brake adjustment spoon like # W80630 to adjust the brakes out so that there is just a slight but constant drag of the pads on the drum when the wheel is turned.
I have attached a video demonstration that you can check out as well that shows this process. Just fast forward to around the 4:35 mark to see where the installer starts to adjust the brakes.
